Lyrics

THE DAY I WENT ASTRAY<br />
<br />
I was bound for glory<br />
When I ran into you.<br />
The crash scene was gory<br />
After all those sparks flew.<br />
<br />
I was bound for glory<br />
When I ran into you.<br />
Now, it&rsquo;s the same old story,<br />
Waiting for the other shoe.<br />
<br />
It may not be<br />
What I meant to say<br />
About the day<br />
You were sent my way:<br />
The day you were sent my way<br />
Is the day, the day<br />
I went astray.<br />
<br />
A twist and a turn,<br />
Another cul de sac,<br />
You twist and you turn;<br />
Life always brings you back.<br />
<br />
There&rsquo;s many a twist and turn,<br />
Many a cul de sac;<br />
Many a lesson to learn<br />
On this human race track.<br />
<br />
It may not be<br />
What I meant to say<br />
About the day<br />
You were sent my way:<br />
The day you were sent my way<br />
Is the day, the day<br />
I went astray.<br />
<br />
Yeah, I was bound for glory,<br />
I had my whole race to run.<br />
Now, it&rsquo;s like my life story<br />
Starts and ends on page one,<br />
<br />
I was bound for glory<br />
When I ran into you,<br />
This is no WEST SIDE STORY;<br />
I&rsquo;m not gonna die for you.<br />
<br />
It may not be<br />
What I meant to say<br />
About the day<br />
You were sent my way:<br />
The day you were sent my way<br />
Is the day, the day<br />
I went astray.<br />
<br />
Sin is just a side road<br />
For the lover and the lost.<br />
Never made a map that showed<br />
How much that detour cost.<br />
<br />
It may not be<br />
What I meant to say<br />
About the day<br />
You were sent my way:<br />
The day you were sent my way<br />
Is the day, the day<br />
I went astray.<br />
<br />
The day you were sent my way<br />
Is the day, the day<br />
I went astray.<br />
<br />
